Chinese Silver Dragon Dollar
The “Great Qing Silver Coin,” due to its relatively recent issuance, is also quite common in the market. Its value can be determined by several principles:
- Denomination Size: The main denominations include “one liang,” “one jiao,” “two jiao,” “five jiao,” and “one yuan.” Generally, the larger the denomination, the higher the price.
- Issued Quantity: Some denominations of the Great Qing Silver Coin were issued in limited quantities, making them highly prized among collectors.
- Condition: According to the coin grading association, coins are categorized as “Uncirculated,” “About Uncirculated,” “Extremely Fine,” “Fine,” and “Good.” Condition has a significant impact on the coin’s price.
- Special Cases: Specimen coins and error coins are especially valuable and typically command a higher price.
